Hi guys,

I recently switched from DSL (PPPoE) to cable (DHCP), and changed the config in /etc/config/network accordingly.

My problem is, that udhcpc now runs as daemon to get the public IP address via dhcp. Although the lease time is 95 days (I sniffed some dhcp packets and took a look at them), it thinks that the lease time is only 3600 seconds, requesting/reconfirming the public IP address every hour. This is very annoying.

Is there a way to fix this behaviour? Is there perhaps a standard dhcpcd or dhclient package in a repository?

As a workaround I killed the dhcp process and requestes an IP via udhcpd by hand, telling it to quit after it optained a lease. Problem is now, that the router might loose it internet connection, when the lease expires
